Remove paralysis (2nd level cleric / paladin) or remove curse (3rd level cleric / bard, 4th level wizard) should fix him. Durkon would definitely be able to fix him, Hinjo is probably high enough level to fix him, Lein might be high enough level, and there's even an off chance that Elan might have learned remove curse at some point. Should (s)he show up, V is of high enough level, the only question is if (s)he knows the spell. Hell, if he weren't paralyzed, O'Chul himself could almost certainly cast Remove paralysis. So yeah, O'Chul can be unparalyzed. Most likely as soon as it would be funny / dramatic.

Thanks guys, I didn't know if the Lich paralysis had special rules about it.

Gally posted:Thanks guys, I didn't know if the Lich paralysis had special rules about it. quote:Paralyzing Touch (Su): Any living creature a lich hits with its touch attack must succeed on a Fortitude save or be permanently paralyzed. Remove paralysis or any spell that can remove a curse can free the victim (see the bestow curse spell description, page 203 of the Player's Handbook). The effect cannot be dispelled. Anyone paralyzed by a lich seems dead, though a DC 20 Spot check or a DC 15 Heal check reveals that the victim is still alive..[/i] Right from the Monster Manual (including the typo with 2 periods). So no dispelling, but you can use Break Enchantment, Limited Wish, Miracle, Remove Curse or Wish.

Out of curiosity, is there a way to reverse vampirism?

Wish and Miracle will for sure do it, but they'll for sure do most things. There are other ways but they're typically GM or Campaign Setting specific.

TheBalor posted:I think Vampires turn to ash when they die, though. " The condition of the remains is not a factor. So long as some small portion of the creature’s body still exists, it can be resurrected, but the portion receiving the spell must have been part of the creature’s body at the time of death. (The remains of a creature hit by a disintegrate spell count as a small portion of its body.)"

The way I ruled it is that when someone gets undeadified, their soul is captured or held in a sort of stasis, and what's running their body is basically an evilfied version of their personality, like a corrupted copy of a file. Killing the undead releases the soul so the original person can be raised. But Idunno how it works according to official rules. Edit:  True Resurrections specifically says that it can revive someone who's been turned undead and then destroyed.

I like how the thing in the darkness is holding out a plate, but it's just hovering there. You don't even get to see its hand, that's how stingy Burlew is!

That is, indeed, the joke. The whole World of Darkness system only requires d10s to play.

TheFuzzyLumpkin posted:That is, indeed, the joke. The whole World of Darkness system only requires d10s to play. Only being a kind word for it. For those unaware, instead of being like d20 system where you roll a die and add stat-based modifiers to your final total, in the World of Darkness system you roll a die for every point in the stats relevant to the task at hand (most of which go to 5, so you're on-average rolling 4-7 dice per action), and a number of them have to exceed a target number (or a set number, depending on edition of the game). So yeah, to completely overanalyze the joke to death, a flat d20->d10 conversion would be messy and involve craptons of dice. Aaaanyway...if Belkar made a suit out of Roy's corpse, would that circumvent the "mile away" provision on his Mark? He is evil after all.

Where is the cleric when you need him? And, I never did find out the rules about putting a body, either paralyzed or dead, in a bag of holding. Because how else are they going to get them out of there after they deal with the Sunshade menace and his tea party?

This is Belkar we're talking about. He was probably the archetype for the little bastards, and I wouldn't be surprised if other games took the 'psycho midget' idea and ran with it. I wonder if that magical skull he was toting around for half the battle had diamond eyes? Could they use those for the resurrect spell? [Sorry if my rules are rusty, but you need Diamond Dust as a component, right?]
